Love moving warm up protocols. They require more force production and management and allow for more freedom of movement along with increasing heart rate and respiration. Make sure your warm ups are multiplantar, contain elements of coordination and stability, and are scalable (ramping up intensity as you progress). Most importantly try to stay as grounded as possible in minimalist shoes or barefoot to greater stimulate that intrinsic stabilizer muscles that helps produces strength and stability.

Fascia is fibrous connective tissue that wraps and supports muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, organs, and everything in between.

👉Without movement, your body becomes stiff and painful. Major benefits of the Fascial Stretching offered at Unconventional Strength (FST) include:

🔷Increased Range of Motion & Flexibility

🔷Muscular Balance & Symmetry

🔷Reduced Pain & Risk of Injury

🔷Improved Posture, Circulation Energy & Muscle Function

🔷Decreased Compression & Joint Impingement

“MOVE” - /mo͞ov/” 🏃is a change of place, position, or state. Have you ever wondered why your muscles, joints, and connective tissues feel like "concrete" when it's been a while since you've engaged in purposeful movement?

👉Without stimulation or regular movement, your body is prone to physical and mental deterioration that becomes worse with age.

💪 Do something now before a sedentary lifestyle makes you feel 10-20 years older than you really are. - Just Move

Trying to finish this year strong with early AM grind. With offseason strength starting for football Ill be returning to my early AM Grinds. Important to me to wake up my brain and body with complex movements. I wont bore you with the science but the brain thrives with complex movement patterns. This hammer lunge and press combo combines multiple planes, multiple lines and really elevates the heart rate. These are the keys to any movement prep. More to come on this workout and for more workouts check out the website in bio.

Explosive work with @surgeperformanceone and @nt.l

Explosive work with @surgeperformanceone and @nt.loop.
▪️▪️▪️▪️
This become one of my go to movements to build explosiveness without sacrificing stability. What good is being powerful if its without intent and control.

The surge is water based, creating instability at the top of the rep to go along with the physio ball that with a limited surface area. Add in banded resistance at the hip and you have movement great for creating explosive strength in the posterior chain while requiring stabilization across the body.

Now, can the client create maximum amount of power here? Absolutely not! But that isnt the INTENT here. The intent is train explosiveness thru the LPHC while maintaining stability. When its time to create maximum explosiveness the environment changes but the carry over is more access to power with the safety of better stabilization. Sport specific athletes and everyday athletes both benefit greatly. Try it and if its too unstable, remove the physioball and just work from the ground.

Also, in fairness to @cee_nut, I wanted to point out, even after a glute cramp, he finished yesterday. Check my story the outtake.

Mobility Monday with @stickmobility
▪️▪️▪️▪️
Mobility starts at the mid line. Stabilizing the spine, and ridding the body of compensations across the body by strengthening the core musculature allows a client/athlete to enhance their distal mobility. Its not as simple as planks and sit ups though. Stability is created with force and force is created with tension. Stick mobility allows for a transfer of force and feedback of that force. Whether in lateral flexion, rotation, a unilateral environment, spine flexion or hip flexion, stability starts at the mid line and for mobility progress, we need to apply force and progressions.

Steel Mace Saturday #1
▪️▪️▪️
Discipline in my practice with my steel mace and exploring the ranges of movement with the steel mace. No movement with the mace is arbitrary. What you cannot see is the constant tension in the mace whether pulling apart or pushing together. Every Saturday for the next 12 Saturdays ill be putting out intervals, combos and movement paths with the Steel Mace. Its an extension of the bodies ability to move. Excited to share how it can optimize you as an athlete, in the practice of your everyday workouts, and in your mobility practice.

Hip External Rotation Mobility ▪️▪️▪️

Hip External Rotation Mobility
▪️▪️▪️▪️
Creating useable ranges of motion is the key to any mobility work. Useable means control, and strength. Passive stretching, while a key component, is an incomplete recipe for mobility. If you follow @functional_range_conditioning you will learn it takes not only a precise time of passive stretching, but positional irradiation (tension) and then regressive tissue loading to create great synergy and lasting mobility.
Sometimes utilizing an modality like TRX allows us to create better positional tension and full body irradiation. Here Maria is in a 9090 variation using the pendulum effect of the straps to deepen the stretch in the external rotator of her left leg. We then followed that up with regressive tissue activation with active isometric, using the straps. Results is a better, usable ROM and a noticeable difference for the client.
